Belfast: Streets Ahead

The Belfast: Streets Ahead project will improve the parts of Belfast City Centre the public have access to. This includes streets and squares as well as things like furniture, lighting, signs and landscaping. It can also include public art and sculpture.
Work on the first phase of the project commenced in June 2007 and aims to be completed in Spring 2011.
Since the commencement of the construction works DSD and our contractor Farrans (Construction) Ltd have worked to minimise inconvenience to traders, shoppers and visitors in the affected streets. Access to all business premises has been and will continue to be maintained.

We will keep you informed of progress on these pages.
